Attributive modification of subjective pronoun - was possible in 20th century?

I noticed an article in Los Angeles Herald, Volume XLIII, Number 304, 22 October 1918:
Link.

The title says:

Influenza-Crazed He Slays His Family

Here ‘Influenza-Crazed’ seems to modify ‘He’. Were there a comma, it could have modify the whole sentence, as ‘bewildered’ does in the following sentence:

Bewildered, the kid fell to the ground and cried out loud.

But this is not the case. As we can clearly see the article in images, the whole sentence is without breaks.

In some exclamations did I see the attributive modifications on subjective pronouns, as in:

Poor me! Poor you!

But I think they do not usually (in modern English) go as far to form a usual sentence as: "Poor me had nothing to eat but a piece of bread for a whole week."

Maybe in 1918, the time in which article was written, this was more or less acceptable?
